This deck may take some time to assemble the right pieces together, but once you play a few games, you see that no 2 games can feel the same. If someone takes out one of your combos, you can just tutor for another. Take that one out? Well just find another of course!

What I love about the deck is that it can surprise even me sometimes. There may be some combos that even I don't see, but when I find out the synergy between cards, it's just a fun experience. I want to cram so many combos in here, but with only 100 cards, it's sad to see some cards go.

Combos

Devoted Druid + Experiment Kraj + Hardened Scales

• As long as you have a +1/+1 counter on both the druid and the Kraj, you have both a large amount of mana and +1/+1 counters.

Experiment Kraj + Gilder Bairn + Gyre Sage

• Just add 3 mana to your mana pool when Experiment Kraj that has at least 3 counters on it when you have a Gyre Sage on the field. Use that mana to untap the Kraj (as long as Gilder Bairn has a counter on it) to add more counters to the Kraj. Rinse and repeat to get exponential mana with an exponential amount of counters on Kraj. You can then put counters on every other creature and swing for lethal.

Animation Module + Champion of Lambholt

• When one creature enters the battlefield, it triggers a chain reaction making Champion of Lambholt absolutely massive as long as you have the mana to do so. It also makes all your creatures unblockable which is a nice bonus.

Evolution Sage + Fertilid

• You can pretty much pull all of your basic lands out with this combo, as long as you have the mana of course. Remove a counter from Fertilid, get a land, proliferate the counter on Fertilid with Evolution Sage, and repeat.

Ivy Lane Denizen + Scurry Oak

• If you play Scurry Oak on turn 3 and Ivy Lane Denizen on turn 4, the Scurry Oak will evolve, creating a 1/1 squirrel. This triggers Ivy Lane Denizen, putting a +1/+1 counter on the oak and creating an infinite loop til your hearts desire. Heck, you can even do this turn 3 if you play a turn 1 Birds of Paradise.

Herd Baloth + Ivy Lane Denizen

• This combo is the same as the Ivy Lane Denizen + Scurry Oak combo, but a turn later. You just need to play the Ivy Lane Denizen turn 4 and Herd Baloth turn 5.

Any comments or suggestions? Feel free to leave some. I'm always looking for cool new synergies I may not have noticed.
